Where the Money Actually Comes From

Nevada is a fault state, so the driver who caused your crash, really their insurer, pays for the harm they did. A full claim is a lot more than the first ER bill, and most people leave money on the table because they settle before they know what they are actually owed.

Medical Care

The ER trip off the 215, imaging, surgery, physical therapy, and the future treatment a Henderson doctor says you will still need.

Lost Paychecks

Time off work while you heal, plus reduced earning power if you cannot go back to the same job at the same pace.

Pain and Suffering

The physical pain, the sleep you lose, and the things around the house and with your kids you can no longer do the way you used to.

Your Vehicle

Repair or replacement of your car, a rental while yours sits in a Green Valley body shop, and the towing bill.

The size of a claim turns on how badly you were hurt, how long you need care, and what the crash takes away from your daily life. A sprained wrist that heals in a month is a different case than a back injury that needs injections for years. We never throw out a number to win your phone call. We pull your records first, then build the demand around what your losses actually are. If your injuries are serious, our page on major crash injuries goes deeper, and the settlement page walks through how the dollars get calculated.

We Know These Roads Because We Drive Them Too

Our office is on St. Rose Parkway, not a tower on the Strip. We know the merge mess where the 215 meets Eastern, the speed traps on Boulder Highway, and the way traffic stacks up near Green Valley Parkway at five o'clock. When you describe where you got hit, we can picture it.

That local read matters more than people think. It tells us which intersections have working cameras, which businesses keep dash and security footage, and how a Clark County jury tends to see a given stretch of road.

"Outstanding service by the Law Office of Erik Serevino."

A Minor-Looking Crash Can Still Hurt You for Months

Low speed does not mean low injury. Your body takes a real jolt even when the bumper barely shows it, and insurers count on you not knowing that. The fender-bender on Sunset Road that looks like nothing can leave you stiff and aching for weeks.

Here is what brings most Henderson drivers to our door: whiplash and neck strain, concussions and other traumatic brain injuries, herniated and bulging discs, broken bones from a hard side impact, torn shoulders and knees, and lasting back and spine damage. A lot of these do not announce themselves the day of the crash. They creep in once the adrenaline fades, which is exactly why getting checked early protects both your health and your claim.

If a child was riding with you, the stakes go up. Kids get hurt differently in a crash, and their cases deserve their own care. Our page on children hurt in car accidents covers what to watch for.

Partial Blame Does Not Sink Your Case

Nevada runs on modified comparative negligence under NRS 41.141. In plain terms: you can be partly to blame and still recover, as long as your share is 50 percent or less. If a jury puts you at 20 percent at fault, your recovery drops by 20 percent. Cross above half and you walk away with nothing, which is exactly why insurers work so hard to shove more blame onto you.

That is the whole game on the other side of a Henderson claim. The adjuster's first offer is built to close your file cheap, before you know how hurt you really are. They will say the impact was minor, that you waited too long to treat, that you had a bad back before the crash. Each of those lines has an answer, and a record that backs it up. Our job is to have that record ready before they ask for it. The deeper into the case you go without help, the more of these traps you walk into. You can compare specific crash situations on our rear-end and intersection T-bone pages.

Five Moves That Keep Your Henderson Case Strong

You do not have to do all of this perfectly. Do what you can from the scene, and we will handle the rest.

1

Get Checked Out

See a doctor the same day if you can. It protects your health and dates your injuries.

2

Report It

Call the police and get the event number. The report pins down who was where on the road.

3

Document the Scene

Photos of both cars, the road, signals, and any visible injuries. Grab witness names.

4

Say Little to Adjusters

No recorded statement and no quick settlement before you have talked to a lawyer.

5

Call Erik

We start preserving footage and dealing with the insurers from day one.

Nevada Deadline: Two Years

Under NRS 11.190, you generally have two years from the date of the crash to file a car accident lawsuit. Claims involving a city or government vehicle carry a special claim procedure. Talk to us early so a deadline never decides your case for you.

"Highly recommend. Thank you so much to Eric and all his paralegal staff, they are all very PROFESSIONAL, KNOWLEDGEABLE, UNDERSTANDING, pleasant down to earth to say the least. They explained everything and was able to answer all my questions with patience. Eric made it all easy and processed eveything in no time. It is always important to chose the right person when making a big decision and Eric is the ONE. THANK YOU."

Find the Situation That Fits Yours

Every crash has its own fault questions and its own evidence. Start with the one that matches what happened to you out on the road.

Car Accident Questions, Answered Plainly

We do. Our office sits at 2470 St. Rose Pkwy, Suite 303, right here in Henderson off the 215. You are welcome to come in and sit across the desk from Erik, but you do not have to. Plenty of clients handle the whole thing by phone, email, and text while they heal. If getting around is hard right now, tell us and we will come to you or set up a call. Either way, you are not driving across the valley to some tower on the Strip to find your lawyer.
Most Henderson injury lawsuits are filed in the Eighth Judicial District Court of Clark County, the general trial court that covers the whole county, with the Regional Justice Center in downtown Las Vegas. Smaller dollar disputes, the kind where the amount in question is 15,000 dollars or less, can land in Henderson Justice Court instead. Most cases settle before a suit is ever filed, but we build every file as if it is headed to a Clark County jury, because that is what makes an adjuster take your number seriously. Read more about how car accident settlements work in Nevada.
The 215 Beltway is the big one, especially the on and off ramps near St. Rose Parkway and Eastern Avenue where traffic merges fast. We also see a lot of crashes along Sunset Road, on Boulder Highway, around the Green Valley Parkway shopping corridors, and near the I-215 and I-515 interchange. Anthem and the climbs up toward the hills add their own blind curves. If your crash happened at one of these, odds are we have handled one a block away.
It really is, and it stays confidential whether or not you hire us. You call, you tell us what happened, and we tell you honestly whether you have a case worth pursuing. There is no charge for that conversation and no pressure at the end of it. If we do take your case, we work on contingency, so you pay no fee unless we win. Call (702) 360-5000 any time, days, nights, or weekends.
For most Nevada injury claims, the deadline is two years from the date of the crash under NRS 11.190. That feels like a long runway, but Henderson camera footage gets recorded over in weeks, skid marks wash away, and witnesses move. If a city or government vehicle was involved, you have to present a formal claim to the agency first, so do not sit on those. The safest move is to call early and let us start the clock-sensitive work right away.
You still can in most cases. Nevada follows modified comparative negligence under NRS 41.141, which means you can recover as long as you are 50 percent or less at fault. Your share of the blame just trims your recovery by that percentage. Adjusters love to pin extra fault on you because every point they add cuts their bill, so do not accept their version of who caused what. We gather the evidence that pushes back.
Be careful with that call. The adjuster sounds friendly, but they work for the company that has to pay you, and the recorded statement they ask for gets used to shrink your claim later. You are not required to give one. It is fine to say you are getting medical care and that your attorney will be in touch, then hand it to us. See our main car accident page for what to expect from the insurance side.
You may still have a path to recovery. Your own uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage can step in when the at-fault driver flees or carries nothing. At that point you are dealing with your own insurer, and they do not always play fair, which is exactly when having someone in your corner matters. Look at our pages on hit-and-run claims and uninsured motorist coverage.
Get checked anyway, ideally the same day. Adrenaline hides pain, and soft tissue injuries and concussions often show up a day or two later. A gap between the crash and your first visit is the first thing an insurer points to when they argue you were not really hurt. Seeing a doctor protects your health and your claim at the same time. If you are dealing with neck pain, our page on whiplash injuries walks through what to watch for.
Nothing up front. We work on contingency, which means our fee is a percentage of what we recover for you, and if we do not win, you owe no fee. Before anything moves, we walk through case costs and expenses with you in plain language so there are no surprises down the line. You can also reach our team through the contact page if you would rather start in writing.
That happens more than you would think on Henderson roads. Nevada lets a driver get by with just 25,000 dollars per person and 50,000 dollars per crash for bodily injury, plus 20,000 dollars for property damage, the 25/50/20 floor set in NRS 485.185. One surgery or a long stretch of physical therapy can blow past those numbers before you are even back on your feet. When the at-fault policy runs out, the uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage on your own policy can pick up the rest, and we read every policy that might reach your crash. Our uninsured motorist page breaks down how that coverage works.
It can. Nevada bans handheld texting and similar device use behind the wheel, and hands-free is the only allowed way to use a phone while driving under NRS 484B.165. Police can stop a driver for that alone, and a citation can support a distracted-driving negligence claim. We see this a lot at the busy lights along Stephanie Street and Sunset Road, where a glance at a screen turns a green light into a rear-end. A citation does not automatically prove fault, but paired with the crash report, witness accounts, and any phone records, it builds a strong picture for a Clark County jury. Our distracted driving page covers how we pull that proof together.
No, and it catches people off guard. In Nevada, the deadline to sue for damage to personal property such as your vehicle is three years, which is longer than the two-year deadline that applies to injuries from the same crash under NRS 11.190. So one collision can create two separate clocks. Do not let the longer property clock lull you, because the shorter injury deadline is the one that usually decides your case. While your car sits in a Green Valley body shop, we keep the injury side moving so nothing gets away from you.
